A short YouTube clip (SDR #227 Short) where Chris Collins argues that time-management problems stem from an incongruence between stated goals and everyday actions. He explains that people often claim goals (e.g., buying a house) but act in ways that contradict those goals; this mismatch, not limited time, causes poor progress. He also warns against over-scheduling ("you can't grow a tree in a room full of stuff") because constant busyness leaves no space for high-leverage activities.

But that's how most people walk through life is like, no, I have a goal, I want to buy a house, or I have a goal, I want to do this. But then all of their actions would tell you that that goal doesn't exist. All of his actions are telling you that he doesn't really. And so that incongruency, the top of it is the cause of time management issues, not actually time management, because you only have so much time. That's right. And also, if you're better at managing time, there's that saying, you can't grow a tree in a room full of stuff. You actually don't want to stack your time, so you're busy constantly back to back to back to back, because you have no room to get the things that are going to get you ahead done.
